Product Summary

A ductile iron pulley made by ductile iron, is a simple machine which is used to change the direction of an applied force, transmit rotational motion, or realize a mechanical advantage in either a linear or rotational system of motion. The common defining characteristic of ductile iron is the morphological structure of the graphite.
Ductile iron is specifically useful in many automotive components, in which strength needs surpass that of aluminum but do not necessarily require steel. A ductile iron pulley includes a wheel on an axle or shaft that may have a groove between two flanges around its circumference. A cable, rope, belt, or chain usually runs over the wheel and inside the groove in particular for a continuously variable transmission.
